Organic beekeeping is very difficult and takes great skill on the part of the beekeeper to maintain hive strength with only organic measures to protect the colony against natural predators and sickness. The native flora the honey is extracted from, right down to the diet of the bees themselves needs to be balanced and certified organic. To be officially certified, hives must be made from organic materials and only exposed to organic environments and beekeeping techniques in the preparation of the honey. Sites have to be regularly audited to meet a rigorous checklist of requirements to reach certification, including not being within a 5km radius of all normal farms and agricultural land that don’t use organic methods.

Every batch of Barnes Naturals™ Organic Honey is tested ensuring it is free of all environmental pollutants.
